Everytime I see one of these studies that claim a tiny reduction in STD infection rates I want to scream that condoms offer close to 99% reduction in STD rates! If you want to keep from getting STDs you wear a fucking condom. ---

> [@Princhester](#): > > Oh FFS **Ambivalid** T-R-O-L-L is not an alternative spelling of “person with whacko views”. The word gets thrown around like confetti around here. Try2B is persistently but consistently extremist and silly but as far as I can tell (worryingly) sincere. Lay off it already. Get another damn tune. It’s not his fault you don’t understand what the word means. Trolling is posting with the intent to piss people off and stir up outrage. Now, granted, we allow that in the Pit, and only consider it trolling if it’s obviously not what you believe. But that’s not a requirement for the term, and this was originally not posted in the Pit. From past posts on this subject, it seems this is actually a pathology for the OP, but I don’t expect every poster to know that the OP needs therapy. ---

> [@Try2B\_Comprehensive](#): > > And of course it is _comparable_ to FGM, it involves amputating analogous structures. Not really. I mean, yes, both involve cutting off parts of one’s naughty bits, but it’s not the same parts. The clitoris is developmentally and structurally analogous to the penile head, not a wad of skin around the shaft, and its damage/removal is the _mildest_ form of FGM. The foreskin is more analogous to the labia minora. So it’s really not an apt or useful comparison at all. Now, if there were some common form of surgery that removed part or all a baby boy’s penile head (and sometimes cut off the whole penis, and sometimes took the scrotum for good measure and sewed the whole gaping hole into a passage just big enough to piss through), then you could compare it to FGM without sounding like nutbar. Or if FGM involved cutting off the labia minora and leaving everything else alone. But neither of those things is so, so it’s a totally stupid, useless, and nutty-sounding comparison. Granted, I think cutting off the labia minora sounds like a pointless and unpleasant thing to do, and wouldn’t go for it absent some fairly blatant benefit, but it’s not the sort of thing that would destroy your sex life. Then again, punching holes into a baby’s ears sounds pretty pointless and unpleasant, too. Yet we do it quite often, without even debatable health benefits to justify it. And ftr, doctors cut out/off healthy tissue all the damn time. They’re called plastic surgeons, and they are very, very busy people. ---

> [@Lochdale](#): > > That’s actually a very good summation. Well put. I suppose not everyone has to take as hard a line as me as long as they agree to not participate in routine circumcision. But assent isn’t really enough- the change ought to apply to the whole country. Action is required. > [@Drunky\_Smurf](#): > > Also if you come back to continue trolling then you should stop telling people to “fuck off” as it is against the Pits’ rules. I would have reported you but the mods don’t seem to hand out mod notes/warnings for nearly month old infractions. The ways of the mods can be mysterious and inscrutable, but if I had to guess why there has been no warning issued in this thread it’d be 1) “fuck off” is a suggested script and not directed at a poster and 2) that is derived from Jesus’ treatment of His own mother: > [@](#): > > “If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother…he cannot be my disciple.” but specifically: > [@](#): > > “Woman, what have I to do with thee?” Relax, I have not transformed into a bible beater. This whole thread spun off the German Appeals Court Bans Circumcision for Relgious Reasons thread. People discussed the religious justifications of the practice, the legal foundations and so on. In short, I thought the German court got it backwards- religious circumcisions should be allowed, otherwise routine ones should be banned, and here’s how to accomplish that. In the context of the religious discussion I pointed out that “Woman, what have you to do with me” is essentially another way of saying, “fuck off”, which implies this is an allowed behavior in that tradition, and furthermore that the topic of circumcision is a context in which I suggest it be used. I take a 3rd person view of that religion. I can’t really participate for the woo, but it is part of the culture and I can recognize that it isn’t entirely lacking in meaning. Consider for a second- why do shrinks ask about your mother? Because almost everyone’s concept of that will be extensive, which makes it a great nexus of denial. When the character who is defined as being unable to do wrong unabashedly turns to his mother and says, “Woman, what have you to do with me” in response to her harping interference, you must admit there is a display of self-actualization being depicted. This character’s behavior does not strictly follow along the track in the road. No, the dude is trying to accomplish something, mother threatens to fuck it up, and so no matter how much cognitive dissonance it may cause to switch into this mode he follows through with the correct course of action. A lesser, or weaker, or too-obedient person might fail at such a crossroads, with negative consequences for the remainder of their existence. I’m just saying. Please don’t think this whole thing is about Jesus. The full explanation will have to wait for the final thread on the topic, outside of the pit. But I am telling you, if you are American, circumcised, and not Jewish or Muslim (other exceptions may apply), telling your mother to fuck off in a punitive manner is the prescription for you. Yes we have to recognize the widespread nature of the practice, and the need for society to continue to adhere for everyone’s own good. So. If your mother will at least shed one tear over the harm she’s caused and quit her support for circumcision and agree to dissuade others (and she doesn’t have to be aggressive about it), then you can let her off the hook. Otherwise, try not to let her off the hook. ---

They’re called plastic surgeons, and they are very, very busy people. That and vaginas aren’t penises – they function differently, and the reasons for FGM and consequences are much more dire. I’ve posted cites about it in his other threads on this topic, but it’s not what he wants to hear, so he ignores it. ---

Articles with an evidence level of 5 or higher were not included in this review.

For every guy doing fine circumcised there are many more doing fine uncircumcised. That’s a non-starter. You can cut little boys’ nipples off too, so they never get nipple cancer. Most people would call that “really stupid.” Why should I be circumcised? I’m gay. My penis will never go anywhere near a vagina. You don’t get to slice up my penis to protect some chick I’ll never have sex with. Don’t give me any crap about it protecting me from HIV either. That’s really, really stupid and based on African tribal studies where people think raping virgins cures AIDS. Cutting their penises completely off would probably show some benefits too. ---
